I have been getting an error message when trying to send to a frequent correspondent (ISP that end Comcast} an email with 16 photos attached. I had previously sent an email with about 18 pictures - i hasten to add I was asked to do so. The pictures are lifted from Picasa to be attached. Have been online with my ISP PlusNet who have checked and all is OK our end. The error messages differ slightly but here is one I just got - "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: FSZ71w0051LXgkF01SZ8DP message rejected due to spam or virus. If you believe this is in error please login to your portal or contact your ISP support team.. Please check the message and try again." I suspect this is Comcast and not you but need to check. Can you advise

You're correct, even though I'm not sure who you mean with 'you'. If that's either Thunderbird or Mozilla, none of them is an email provider.

Thanks. It was "Thunderbird" I meant by you.
